Java frequently fails to remove older versions of itself. If you are using our TP for PSI 2.0, these old versions of Java would be flagged as "Zombie files". The newer java versions are installed seperately, without removing the older versions, that still remain behind to pose a threat.

The patches provided by the PSI are taken from the vendor, and Secunia is not involved in their maintenace or production. We only link to them to make patching easier for our users. This, unfortunately, also means that there is little we can immediately do to prevent these old versions from building up (Except for alert people to their prescence, as we do in the new TP).

@dclose May I suggest that you read the 2nd post
by Maurice Joyce in the enclosed link. It is a long but very
detailed explanation of problem(s) & cure(s) for Java(tm).
The thread wasn't locked when I just checked it so you may
want to give Maurice a 'vote'.
